    Google:

    Yandex:

    Like, 2? On the ‘entire’ internet? 2? Right…

      Was Yandex respecting your query there?

      Added quotation marks for “terabox” as well, and it was fascinating across providers:

      Yandex agreed with your Google search…

      …but not mine:

      DDG coming in with one result:

      Startpage, just one result?!

      …nope, not from the “mobile site”:

      Bing didn’t care about those silly quotation marks, here are a thousand results:

        Yet if I enter something like ‘resolv’ in Google I need to add ‘-resolve’ to not get hundreds of unrelated results… Same goes for any not-too-popular software that is named a slight misspelling of their purpose… I even find it ridiculous how often first results litterally say underneath they did not contain your query…

        But with terabox and “content plaza” it gives 2 results?

        Startpage I have no idea, but I’m guessing they, like many, use the Google API for webcrawler results… 1 result? Those are pretty common words,…
